Question
Situation 3] The bearing of the first tangent of a simple curve is N70.7ºE while the second tangent
has a bearing of S82037'E. The degree of curve is 4.50 and chainage of PC is 3+777. It is proposed
to decrease the central angle by an angle of 70 by changing the direction of the second tangent,
in such a way that the position of PT and the direction of the first tangent shall remain unchanged.
Determine the following:
主
New angle of intersection, I
New radius of the curve, R'
New chainage of station PC
